While hosting our open house at 127 Lucksinger Lane yesterday I was out and about on the glorious secluded property; taking in the million dollar views I couldn’t help but envision outdoor experiences at this property…

With upper and lower deck access this flawless home invites a variety of outdoor gatherings…

On the first floor the stunning views from large windows captivate your gaze from the kitchen, living room and dining room areas

From intimate romantic dinners with your loved ones, to large scale outdoor events and parties!

Don’t worry about bothering your neighbors, this amazing home is privately located at the Summit of Cordillera

Home owners have deck access from ALL 4 bedrooms in basement as well as recreational space

Having a well maintained and functional mudroom is essential when living here in the High Country. When every season is a “play” season residents seem to accumulate A LOT of gear and clothing, with a well kept mudroom you can easily get to your go – to seasonal accessories without creating too much clutter!

Initially setting up your mudroom with barriers or compartments that distinguish storage areas so you can easily stash your wet boots, ski jackets, hiking gear or whatever seasonal accessories desired.
Cubbies, coat hooks, or even storage bins can be used to help separate mudroom gear and make it easy for your family or guests to get to what they need without shuffling around.

As thegateway into your home a mudroom can be stylish as well as a functional storage space! Blending themes you already have in your home into your mudroom keeps nice, well balanced consistency. However, giving your mudroom a different splash of style is also exciting; brightening the space with a little paint and a few other updates such as new boxes or baskets, you and your family will be re-energized to stay organized!

Maximizing space by layering your storage compartments makes for an efficient mudroom and optimal space for storing gear. Such as; on top of a locker like set up purchase small baskets or boxes to hold stray items. Place those boxes above your head but still within reach (like the above image!).

Alos, encourage guests to slip off their shoes to come into your cozy home by leaving a basket of slippers in the space.
